In The Lightlings, Dr. R.C. Sproul
weaves an allegorical tale that
captures the essence of the biblical
story of redemption. A race of tiny
beings known as lightlings represent
humanity as they pass through all the
stages of the biblical drama—creation,
fall, and redemption. In the end,
children will understand why some
people fear light more than darkness,
but why they need never fear darkness
again. Richly detailed illustrations by
Justin Gerard will hold children’s
interest, and discussion questions and
Scripture references in the back will
help parents guide children into the
deeper meaning of the story.
